Writing Table, Mahogany, 19th Century

About the Item

Rectangular board table decorated with a strip of vegetal motifs on the outer edge, waist enhanced with carved bands with oval and vegetable motifs of classicist influence and legs decorated with an elegant cabriolet shape and carved motifs (scrolls, bows and simple vegetal themes that are they extend through the waist of the furniture) topped by very simplified claw shapes holding balls. This cap on the legs also appears in Chippendale examples and in American works and, apparently, was a theme inspired by works from the Far East, replacing the leg of the dragon with the sphere by a lion (thus showing the English supremacy) and making it very popular in England during, approximately, the first half of the 18th century, and recovering later." Size: 94 x 70 x 76 cm.
